Storyline

When the kids' school bus crashes and ends up hanging off the edge of a cliff, Miss Crabtree tells everyone to stay in the bus while she goes to get help. While they wait, the kids tell stories about their past adventures, although their versions don't quite match up with what actually happened. Meanwhile, Miss Crabtree has little success trying to get anyone to listen to her demands for help. Written by Jean-Marc Rocher <rocher@fiberbit.net>

Another One Of Trey's And Matt's Gems!
11 August 2012 | by (United Kingdom) – See all my reviews

For celebrating their 20th episode in the making of South Park, Trey Parker And Matt Stone brings us an episode about The Boys remembering landmark memories in their lives, (As well as the show!) while their school bus is dangling down from a cliff. Their bus driver "Miss Crabtree" goes looking for help and on her way finds the love of her life. During this episode, Trey And Matt parody a lot of pop cultural references as they manage to make fun of Carrot Top And Barney The Dinosaur (I love you, you love me!) This episode would have probably only have taken around two weeks to make, since it used footage from older South Park episodes. All in all, it is another classic episode which I strongly recommend, (I've seen it four times now!) but seeing Miss Crabtree in love was one thing I did not really have the passion to see.

Overall Rating: 9/10!
